BIC Report

Created to Endure. Designed to Evolve. This year, we celebrate that BIC’s endurance has spanned more than 80 years of crafting useful designs that drive long-term runway and value. Our sustainability work is driven by a combined focus on our heritage and evolution. In this way, we steer each choice based on how we’ve arrived at today’s degree of progress. We stay the course while advancing toward tomorrow’s opportunities. Looking ahead, BIC is evolving by activating sustainable solutions to future-facing needs. It’s a powerful balance that energizes our approach to sustainability. In 2024, we also met our responsibilities under the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), marking another milestone in our transparency journey. As our baseline year, this laid the groundwork for longterm integration of financial and impact materiality into our strategy. From Paris to New York to São Paulo, nearly everyone has a personal connection to BIC. This cultural relevance intersects with our capacity for change that can scale—resulting in steady progress toward more sustainable solutions for everyday essentials. Now, let’s look at some of the sustainability activations from the 2024 chapter of our journey. Hello, and welcome to BIC’s 2024 Sustainability Report.
